UDR ANNOUNCES THIRD QUARTER 2008 RESULTS
| • | Achieved 17th consecutive quarter of same community revenue growth, up 3.4 percent year-over-year and up 0.8 percent sequentially. |
| • | Completed the acquisition of 1,324 homes in five communities, utilizing $286 million of 1031 exchange funds from the March 2008 portfolio sale. |
| • | From June 30 through November 1, strengthened the balance sheet by completing a $194 million equity offering and securing $120 million in construction loans for existing development projects. |
| • | In November, renegotiated an existing Fannie Mae credit facility to expand the commitment from $139 million to $300 million and extend the maturity from 2010 to 2018, at a blended rate of 4.8 percent. |
DENVER, CO(Nov. 3, 2008) UDR, Inc. (NYSE: UDR) today reported Funds from Operations (“FFO”) of $49.5 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, for the quarter ended Sept. 30, 2008, versus $68.7 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, for the same period a year ago. Comparing year over year results, growth in same store net operating income was offset by lower consolidated income primarily due to the March 2008 sale of 25,684 apartment homes for $1.7 billion, a lower contribution from gains on sales of assets in RE3 and a $1.7 million loss related to September 2008 hurricane expense.
“These are tumultuous times, with unprecedented volatility in the capital markets,” said Thomas W. Toomey, President and Chief Executive Officer of UDR. “While we can’t predict what will happen in the future, we can prepare for it. Consequently, we’ve taken aggressive steps to raise capital and fortify our balance sheet, and we expect to have access to approximately $800 million of capital via a combination of cash and existing credit facilities by year end. This access to capital, coupled with a solid portfolio, an experienced operating team and a track record of innovation, will afford us the opportunity to grow our business.”

Overview
During the third quarter, key initiatives were completed in the areas of strengthening the Company’s portfolio, redevelopment, development, operations and capital management. Progress on these initiatives is described below and will also be discussed during the Company’s November 4, 2008 conference call.
Strengthen Our Portfolio
In the third quarter, the Company substantially completed the recent transformation of its portfolio with the acquisition of 1,324 homes in five communities (including 249 homes in development) and one parcel of land:

“With these acquisitions, we have completed the reinvestment of 1031 exchange funds from our March 2008 portfolio sale,” said Mark Wallis, Senior Executive Vice President of UDR. “Our portfolio is concentrated in attractive markets, with low single-family-home affordability and solid potential for long-term rent growth.”
Redevelopment Update
During the third quarter of 2008, the Company completed the redevelopment of Pine@Sixth, a 158-home community in Long Beach, CA, at a cost of $46,600 per home. This is expected to deliver a 15 percent increase in cash flow. As of September 30, 2008, the Company’s redevelopment pipeline included two communities with 598 apartment homes. Total redevelopment investment by the Company in these properties is expected to be approximately $29.0 million, with $19.6 million invested as of September 30, 2008. Together, these properties are expected to deliver an increase in cash flow of approximately 57 percent.
Also during the quarter, UDR was recognized for excellence in redevelopment by MultiFamily Executive for the second year in a row. In 2008, UDR was awarded an Award of Merit for Renovation Project of the Year for the Company’s redevelopment of Altamira Place, a 360-home community in Orlando, FL, and in 2007, UDR received an Award of Merit for its redevelopment of The Legacy at Mayland, a 576-home community in Richmond, VA.
Development Update
The Company continues to pursue its strategy of strengthening the portfolio with its development initiatives. In the third quarter, the Company delivered three new development properties:
• Laurelwoode – a 324 home community in Houston, Texas.
• Marina del Rey – a 298 home consolidated joint venture community in Marina del Rey, California.
• Lincoln at Towne Square II – a 302 home unconsolidated joint venture community located in Plano, Texas.
“UDR has a solid pipeline of development opportunities that will be completed in phases,” said Wallis. “Active projects include 2,321 homes at an estimated cost of $342 million – with UDR’s remaining equity contribution totaling $20 million. We also have a number of operating properties and other projects slated for future development. We’ll move these into our active development pipeline as market conditions and financing opportunities improve.”
Additional details on the Company’s development and redevelopment initiatives are available in the Company’s third-quarter earnings supplement.
Operations Update
The Company reported the following same-store community results:
| • • • • • | a $3.7 million, or 3.4 percent, increase in revenues to $112.9 million; a $2.3 million, or 6.6 percent, increase in expenses to $37.3 million; a $1.4 million, or 1.9 percent, increase in net operating income to $75.6 million; a $37, or 3.2 percent, increase in average monthly revenue per occupied home to $1,193; and a 10 basis point increase in occupancy to 95.1 percent. |
“As expected, our same community revenue growth slowed and our expenses increased in the third quarter,” said Jerry Davis, Senior Vice President, Operations. “Our reported same community revenue growth was 3.4 percent. If you exclude Florida, which provides approximately 17.3 percent of the Company’s mature portfolio net operating income, our same community revenue growth was a solid 4.7 percent.
“Our expense growth reflected difficult comparisons to last year,” Davis continued. “Keep in mind, we’ve had year-over-year reductions in expense for the past four quarters, which created tough comparisons for the second half of this year. Our expense growth for the third quarter includes higher insurance and utility expense. Excluding insurance claims, third-quarter expenses grew 3.8 percent. On a year-to-date basis, we’ve delivered 4.1 percent revenue growth, 1.7 percent expense growth and 5.3 percent net operating income growth. We ended the quarter with occupancy at 95.1 percent, the highest in over five years.”
The Company reported strong revenue growth in key markets on the West Coast and in Texas, which offset lower revenue from Florida markets. Of the Company’s 22 markets, 17 posted year-over-year revenue growth, with eight of these markets exceeding 5 percent growth and two of these markets exceeding 10 percent growth.
UDR continued its mobile marketing efforts by adding enhanced Google mapping functionality to its Website, launching a special website that can quickly and efficiently deliver information about UDR’s apartment homes to millions of Apple iPhone and iPod® touch users, and by launching in October the multi-family-apartment-home industry’s first website on MySpace, a leading social networking website. As a result of these and other initiatives, the Company’s third-quarter website traffic increased 84 percent, and search engine traffic more than doubled, compared to a year ago. Year to date, more than 1 million unique visitors have accessed the UDR website and approximately 49 percent of new leases originated from an Internet lead.
Capital Markets Update
From June 30 through November 1, 2008, the Company has completed the following capital initiatives:
| • | in early July, repurchased 400,000 shares of UDR common stock at an average price of $22.54; |
| • | in August and September, repurchased $26.7 million of medium-term notes for $24.2 million, for a net gain of $2.5 million; |
| • | in August, redeemed 969,300 shares of Series G Cumulative Redeemable Shares for $20.3 million, a 16 percent discount to their liquidation value; |
| • | closed on $120 million of construction loans for four communities, including $100 million on three communities at an average spread of 157 basis points over 1 month LIBOR and $20 million at a fixed rate of 5.55 percent; |
| • | in October, issued 8.0 million shares of its common stock at a price of $24.25 per share, resulting in net proceeds of $185.3 million; and |
| • | in October, executed a term sheet with Fannie Mae on an expanded credit facility with a maximum commitment of $300 million. The new facility is expected to provide an initial loan advance of approximately $225 million, which will be used to prepay an existing $139 million FNMA facility maturing in April 2010. The new facility, which has a blended interest rate of 4.8 percent, will mature in 2018 and is scheduled to close by the end of November. |
With the closing of these transactions, the Company’s cash balance, and the expected receipt of $200 million from a mezzanine note in mid-2009, the Company expects to be able to satisfy all debt maturities in 2009 without having to draw on its $600 million credit facility.
Dividends
On October 31, UDR paid its 143rd consecutive quarterly dividend on its common stock as well as dividends on its Series E and Series G Preferred Stock.
The Company intends to declare a special dividend payable to holders of its common stock before the end of the year. The special dividend, associated with capital gains arising from property dispositions in 2008, is expected to be $132 million, and the Company expects to pay the special dividend in conjunction with its regular dividend for the quarter ended December 31, 2008. UDR reserves the right to pay the special dividend in the form of cash, or a combination of shares of common stock and cash, and expects to pay the dividend no later than January 29, 2009.
Guidance
For full year 2008, the Company lowered its guidance on FFO to $1.45 to $1.47 per diluted share (excluding potential gains on sales from its RE3 subsidiary). All guidance is based on the current expectations and judgment of the Company’s management team.
“Our recent equity offering will impact fourth-quarter FFO results, and given the uncertainty of the capital markets, we are holding funds in cash and money market accounts earning minimal returns,” Toomey explained. “We believe the short-term impact to FFO is in the best interest of our shareholders as it will provide us with sufficient financial flexibility to take advantage of market opportunities in support of long-term value creation.”

FFO is defined as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable property, premiums or original issuance costs associated with preferred stock redemptions, plus real estate depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. This definition conforms with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trust’s definition issued in April 2002. UDR considers FFO in evaluating property acquisitions and its operating performance and believes that FFO should be considered along with, but not as an alternative to, net income and cash flows as a measure of UDR’s activities in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs.
